Hartranft Lab 10
A
Preliminary Questions
1) None. Each will be effected the same by gravity.
2) Acceleration will increases
Acceleration will decrease
3) They're both part of the same system.
4) It's pretty hard to draw using a keyboard, so you'll have to take my word for it. Each mass is effected by gravity and the tension created by the other mass.

2) See table
The relationship between mass difference and acceleration could either be linear or cubic, but is most likely linear.
The relationship is most likely linear.
4) As the difference of mass increases, acceleration increases. As total mass increases, acceleration decreases.
